John T. Moody, ex-superintendent of the
New York & New Haven road, was trem-
bling and almost overcome with excitement
Saturday afternoon when he entered the po-
lice station in Bridgeport and asked that
Michael Conner be at once arrested for an
outrageous assault upon Ida Moody, a child
of eight years. The little girl is Mr.. Moody's
granddaughter. About noon Saturday Mr..
Moody CHANGED to go to the barn and there
discovered Conner and the child under cir
cumstances that left no doubt of the formers
base designs. Calling assistance Mr.. Moody
had the.villain held until he could report to
the police. Officer Webb arrested Conner
and he is now locked up at the police sta
ton. The prisoner is of Polish descent, al
though born in Ireland, and has been in Mr..
Moody's employ for the past five months.
He is about twenty-five years old, speaks
English imperfectly and has NEST brutal
codntenance. Only Mr.. Moody's timely ar
rival at the barn prevented the accomplish
ment of a brutal crime.

The late Rev. DR.. N. J.. Burton of
Hartford-A Tribute to His Memory
From the second Church, Fair
Haven, His First Pastoral charge.
At meeting of the Second Congregation
alist church, of Fair Haven, held at their
chapel October 21st, 1887, the following reso-
lutions were presented and unanimously
adopted: To wit:
Resolved, That it is with profound and
unfeigned grief and sorrow that this Second
Congregational church of Fair Haven, Ct,
has learned of the sudden and unexpected
demise of the,honored first pastor thereof, the
Rev. Nathaniel j. Burton, D. D., of the Park
Congregational church of Hartford, ct.
Resolved, That this church remember with
heartfelt gratitude to kind and gracious
Providence that he sent us man of such
superior attachments well as great natural
gifts and one who during his too brief stay
among us as pastor Extending as it did only
from July Goth, 1858, to August Both, 1850
became endeared to all our households by
the most tender and endearing ties, by the
exhibition of the following lovable traits of
character, viz:
In his social relations such an agreeable
companion and faithful friend, so large and
manifold in his manhood, the beauty and
fragrance of his character and the outcome
thereof which was his luminous life; his mar
vellous intellectual endowment and the scope
and wisdom of his teachings; and his truly
Christian courtesy, which is very fifty de-
scribed by one of the sacred writers as 're-
turning not evil for evil, or railing for rail-
ing, but contrsriwise blessing"
Resolved, That this church should unoeas-
ingly let its thanksgivings abound to the
"Great Head of the Church" that as preach
Ell there was such an unusual vein of spirit
uality and so much of ''Christ and him cru
cited" running through all his sermons and
that for earnestness, vigor and vividness OF
speech, aptitude of illustration and in the
constant freshness and originality of thought
he had few if any equals, and, while like the
great apostle to the Gentiles he abounded in
all the rich spiritual gifts and graces like
him, he in his own opinion was less than the
least of all saints.
Resolved, That this church unites with the
last psstorate of the lamented Burton in bow
ing with humble submission to the myster-
ious divine dispensation which has inflicted
upon them loss which, humanity speaking,
they will feel to be an irreparable one.
Resolved, That this church hereby tenders
to the severely afflicted widow and family of
the deceased our sincere and hearty condo
lence in the trying ordeal through which
| they are called to pass and commend them
to their and our only source of help and de-
liverance.
Resolved, That an engrossed copy of these

She Wanted Some FIevers.


A lady living in the suburbs was called
| down the other morning to see young girlwho
asked for her at the door but declined to enter
the house. The lady recognized the caller
as girl she had frequently seen in the
neighborhood, but of whose name she was
ignorant.
The girl looked hurriedly up and then
bashfully cast down her eyes to the doormat,
which she nervously prodded with the toe G.
her coarse boot.
SCOT any fowers!" she demanded with a
manner which seemed gruf, but which was
probably only frightened.

''Got any fowersa"

"Cause Mis- Purington wants some"
'sWho is Mrs. Puringtona"
Shes the widow woman what lived in

inquired the lady, utterly at a loss to know
why Mrs. burlington, the widow who dwelt
in the red house at the end of Back alley,
should send to demand flowers from perfect
stranger.

lenly than before.
fBut whaS is she going to do with themp
persisted the puzzled lady.

dead, an she wants some flowers"
And the pathetic situation thus become
clear at length, the lady sent to the departed
widow who would dwell no more in the
red house at the end of Back alley whatever
blossoms the frost had spared in the little
garden.
